"Parker…"
"Just know you can talk to me. It's me. I hope you’ll feel comfortable enough to share with me when you’reready."
Holding my mug, I wrapped my hands around it, letting the heat soak into them while the rest of me shivered. I sat back and rested my head against the chair, wanting to tell him everything. Not just about the attack the night before I moved down, but everything. How I wished that maybe one day we could have another chance together. But I couldn't bring myself to say those words. I was afraid of what he would think of me, and I didn't want him to judge me. I'd given him a glimpse of it all the other day. Instead, I nodded, letting him know that one day, I would talk to him. For the next hour, we sat together and shared memories of ourpast.
After a while, he grew quiet. The night air and sounds of the water had relaxed me to the point I was having a hard time keeping my eyesopen.
"Well, it’s almost one. I'm going to take off and let you get some sleep." Parker checked his watch before standing up and grabbed our mugs to takeinside.
I followed him in, locked the door, and pulled the curtain closed. He stood at the front door and wrapped his arms around me, giving me another of his amazing hugs. He was about to walk out the door when I grabbed hisforearm.
Pausing, he turned and looked at me. "What is it,Tatum?"
"Parker…" His name felt good on my tongue. I swallowed hard as I looked from his eyes to his lips and back again. I didn't know how to ask him, so I blurted, "I don't want to be alone tonight. Will you…will you stay here withme?"
Parker went silent, looked away, and then back to me and took in a deep breath. I couldn’t read the look on his face. "Give me a minute. I have to grab my gym bag from the back of mytruck."
How could I say noto her? As I stood on that porch, her eyes pleading with me, a gnawing feeling in my gut told me to stay. This was going to be a mistake, but how could I turn her down? She neededme.
"Let me grab my bag from the truck. I just finished at the gym when you called. I'd like to have a shower if that’sokay."
Running down the front steps, I went to retrieve my bag. Walking back toward the house, I couldn't help but check Tatum out. Her breasts looked perfect in the white tank top she wore, and I could see her nipples peeking through thefabric.
The tightness in my pants told me I was in trouble. I wished at that moment that Elliott was home and could stay with her instead, but I had promised him I would look out for her while he wasgone.
I walked in, locking the door behind me, and shut off the outside light. Tatum brushed past me, close enough that her coconut body lotion invaded my nostrils. God, I loved thatsmell.
The bulge in my pants was getting painful. If I didn't take care of it in the shower, I was going tobust.
Tatum got me a towel from the closet and cleaned up some of her stuff in thebathroom.
"Everythinggood?"
I nodded, and after I shut the door, I turned the water on to let it warm up. A soft knock came on the door. "I left you a blanket and pillow on the couch," I heard Tatum call through thedoor.
I breathed in a sigh of relief. I was afraid we would have to share her bed. Even though I would have loved to do that, I wasn't sure I'd be ableto.
"Thanks!" I yelled back. Climbing into the shower, I let the warm water fall over me. The heat felt great on my body. Closing my eyes, I imagined what it would feel like to have her lips wrapped around my cock, sucking slowly. I was throbbing and aching, so I reached down and took my cock in my hand and started stroking to that thought. It didn't take long for me to come, and once I had, I showered and got dried off. I didn't want her to wonder what was taking me solong.
Reaching into my gym bag, I realized all I had were my boxers to sleep in. Tatum would be in bed anyway, and besides, all she'd get was a show. All the hours in the gym had done my body good. I had nothing to be ashamed of and nothing she wouldn't like. I had caught her checking me out many timesalready.
I opened the bathroom door in time to see her cute ass walking into her bedroom. Her toned legs and her perfect, rounded ass looked amazing in the little shorts she was wearing. I could see the cheeks of her ass peeking out at the bottom ofthem.
She paused and turned, taking me all in, her eyes going from my shoulders to my chest down to my abs, stopping on my cock which was semi-hard after focusing my gaze on her. When she met my eyes her pupils were dilated, her lips parted, and she looked as if she had been caught doing something sheshouldn’t.
"Goodnight, Tatum." I gave her a wink and a softsmile.
I watched her bite her bottom lip as her eyes traveled back up to my face, a slight pink blush rising into her cheeks. "Night," she whispered and shut the door to her room, leaving it open acrack.
I grabbed the pillow off the back of the couch and put it to one end and sat down. This wasn't going to be comfortable. There was no way my six-foot frame was going to fit on her love seat. Sitting back, I put my feet up on the table and tried torelax.
A half hour later, my mind was still going to thoughts of those little white shorts. I kept trying to ignore the fact that she was lying in a bed on the other side of the wall. I needed to get my mind offher.
I checked my phone for any messages or emails, but there was nothing. I finally shut the light off, laid down, and stretched out, trying to relax. Another hour had passed by, and I was still wide awake. Sitting up, I turned on the light and was about to turn on the TV to see what was on, but instead, I somehow built up enough courage to go and knock lightly on herdoor.
"You still awake?" I whispered. It was only a moment before the light turned on in her bedroom. I pushed the door open and poked my headin.
"Something wrong?" she questioned as she satup.
